Thanks I found that.

I did not try to do it outside of X, so I was not bit by conflict you spoke of. Thanks for noting that however, I would have pulled my hair out trying to figure out what I broke, if you hadn't and you hadn't meantioned it.

Just one annotation, I was not able to start the connection with pppd

connection is started from inside X11... strange thing...

Hi,

I have a DELL Inspiron 8200 laptop.  Gentoo is up and running fine.
But I cannot figure our what the modem device is.  It does not appear
to be /dev/ttyS0.

Can someone shed a clue or two?  Do I need to enable something in the
Kernel to see it?

gentoo-sources kernel
built with genkernel

Thanks.
